By environment we understand the place where people live, work, play or eat. Looking at environmental justice means looking at how the intersections of gender, race, class, age and other identity markers play an important role in the distribution of environmental costs and benefits. Environmental injustices often overlap with socio-economic, racial and intergenerational forms of inequalities and uneven developments.
Our team of scholars employ interdisciplinary frameworks of analysis from environmental sociology and politics, critical theory, ecofeminist and decolonial/postcolonial studies.
Data will be collected via ethnographic fieldwork and interviews, systematic literature review, media analysis and netnography, as well as cultural production analysis.
